THE GIFT OF LIFE


The one thing that i ever did that made me feel like i was making a difference was donating blood. I am 1 pint shy of 5 gallons this makes me so sad and so upset and frustrated because due to my heart surgery i am not eligible to donate again until june of 2009. I know needles scare some people and honestly i dont like them either but somehow knowing i was helping someone else made it all worth the pain or nervousness. i have known people personally who's lives were saved by people who donated blood and that made it even more important to me. and to know that i am willing and wanting to donate and cant and knowing there are people who can and wont just upsets me.
